I had not considered this to be a good idea because
information_schema is defined by the standard, and materialized
views are an extension to the standard.  Someone using these views
to identify either tables or views might make a bad choice based on
this.  I'm open to arguments for inclusion, if you think it would
not violate the standard.  Which would be safe?

Will apply.  Thanks.
